WASHINGTON, September 1Sth-TSpecial. I
Consul Dupre, writing to the State Depart
ment from the republic of Salvador COM
plains ofthe small proportion of importa-
tons made from American ports. Nearly
all foreign goods are brought from Eng
land, France, Germany and Italy The
natives, untrayeled, ,rntaught and yery poor
are caught by cheapness rather than the
actual value of goods, and pretty large sales
are effected. The republic naturally favors
American commercial intercourse, how
ever. While the English commercial code
gives the Salvadorean debtor great adyan-
tages. American gold is worth 8 per cent.
more than English, and the rates of ex-
change favor San Francisco and New York
The high tariffs protecting American cot
tons and iron goods makes these goods ex-
ceedingly costly. OF his efforts to encour-
age trade the Consul says:
Through the press of San Francisco |
sought some months ago TO induce the
mercantile bodies of that city to offer liberal
premiums for the best agricultural products
of Central America, and especially for the
best coffee, sugar, tobacco, indigo. cocoa.
and other products Of Salvador and Costa
Rica. These two Republics trading most
generally with the metropolis of the Pa
cific coast, special prizes were to be awarded
for tobacco and liquors, for the production
OF which the districts of Copau in Hon
duras, and Coputepoque in Salvador, are
especially noted. / was not aware that this
wise action had been taken by San Fran
cisco till the fact was published in several
newspapers OF these Central American
States. This press has much to say in COM
mendation of the conduct of California
merchants, promising to San Francisco a
monopoly of the trade with these Repub-
lies"
Consul Dupre believes that the United
States can have no absolute monopoly of
Central American trade until our own rev.
enue codes have been materially modified
Trade must be confined mainly, until rail
road may be built across these republics, TO
San Francisco.

HORSEPOWER OF THE sun
A Splendid Subject OF Contempla-
ton and Research.

Popular Science.
From human history we know that for
several thousand years the sun has been
giving heat and light to the earth as at
present; possibly with some considera-
bic fluctuations, and possibly with some
not very small progressive variation.
The records of agriculture, and the
natural history OF plants and ami
mails within the time of human his
tory, abound with evidence that there
has been no exceedingly great change in
the intensity of the suns heat and light
within the last 5000 years; but for all
that there may have been variations Of
quite as much as ) or 10 per cent, as we
may Judge from considering that the in
tensity of the solar radiation to the
earth is 619 per cent. greater i'll .Janu
airy than in July; and neither at
or southern hemisphere has this differ
ence been discovered by experience or
general observation of any kind. But
as for the mere age Of the sun. ire
spective of the question Of uniformity,
we have proof or something vastly more
than 5000 years in geological history,
with its irrefragible evidence of c0ntin-
uity of life on the earth in time past for
tens of thousands and probably for mill
ions OF years.
Here, then. we have a splendid sub
iect for contemplation and research in
natural philosophy or physics, the sci
ence of dead matter. The sun, a mere
piece of matter of the moderate dimen-
Sions which we know it to have, bounded
all around by cold ether, has been do
ing work at the rate of four hundred
and seventy-siX thousand mill
lion million million horsepower
for 5000 years and possibly more,
and certainly not much less,
than that for few million years. How
is this to be explained? Natural phil
osophy cannot evade the question, and
no physicist who is not engaged in try
ing to answer it can have any other JUS
tification than that his whole working
| time is occupied with work on some
other subject or subjects of his province
by which he has more hope of being
able to advance science.

RIGHT SMART NEBRASKA BOY.
A Story of Him Told by His adj
miring Parent.

Il want to tell you little story about
my boy out in Newbraskey,' said an Old
farmer in the smoking car to the party
of drummerS who had been telling him
some pretty tall yarns. My boy is Il
good deal of a genius in his way, femme
tell you, and none of 'em gets ahead of
him. T'Other day he rugged up kite
1t was the biggest kite Ia ever set eyes
on. 1t was about six feet wide AN twice
as long, an on the top of it my boy
placed few green branches which he'd
cut from cottonwood tree. What's
them fer?' | inquired. Never YOU mind,
dad says he; 4 know what m about
And, by gosh, he did. He flew that kite
up in the air an stood watchin' of it fer
Il long time, when says to him: You'd
better pull that thing down, now, an
get to your work. 'Lemme ME alone,
dad, he replied; I'll git that yet And,
by gosh, he did. The next time took
look at him he was t-hauling in Oil the
kite line, with a smile on his face as
broad as furrer. When the kite came
down near the ground saw what he
was a Snilin' at, an it was enough to
make body smile, too. Any you fel-
lerS want to guess what was on that
kite?''
None of the drummerS wanted to
guess, and the old man continued his
story.
wall, sir, a-sitin' on top o. that kite
was eleven o the purtiest wild geese ye
ever saw. Yes, sir, eleven on 'em. You
see, the geese was flynn north purity
thick, and my boy had got up this
scheme to catch 'em. There ain many
trees out our way, an after fat goose
has been flynn purity steady all day he
gifts kind o. tired an looks around for a
place to sit down an rest,
That's just what my boy was
comtin' on when he built that kite.
By otferin' the geese place to stop an
rest, an by smearin' the top o the kite
with tar so their feet would stick so fast
they couldn't get away, he did the bust
ness. BY gosh! but it was fun to pull
them geese in. just as fast as we could
send the kite up and pull her down
again we got from ten to a dozen geese,
an in four days we captured six car
loads, an I'm tallin' 'em to Chicago now
to sell. None o. you smart, story-tellin'
fellerS don't happen to know what wild
geese is with now in the Chicago
market, do yep
